Andrea and Stefin step lively into today's episode with a recent report that bakers are happier when they're whipping up treats for others. Your hosts couldn't agree more! With mindfulness in mind, they tackle Andrea's confectioners sugar mystery; review Dorie Greenspan's Breakfast Biscotti; intro two savory morning (or anytime) treats: Mark Bittman's Yogurt Biscuts and Jalapeno Cheddar Scones from Smitten Kitchen; and discuss the mouthwatering assortment of their Facebook fans' morning favorites. Finally, a recent Seattle Times' Rant & Rave regarding lack of pie on dessert menus opens the floodgates for both hosts. "In a complicated world, bring back pie!"
